RESUMO

Imatinib mesylate (STI-571, Gleevec(®)), a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is a first-line medication for treating chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Clinical studies revealed very good hematological responses without significant side effects. However, imatinib may lead to mucosal pigmentation. Three patients, two males aged 64 and 53 and one female aged 29 presented with a painless, diffuse, grey-blue pigmentation of the mucosa of the hard palate. Both male patients had a history of CML and had been on imatinib for 4 and 10 years, respectively. The female patient had been on imatinib for 4 years for pelvic fibromatosis. Histopathologically, deposition of fine, dark-brown, spherical granules was noted within the connective tissue. There was no inflammation or hemorrhage, and no melanosis or melanocytic hyperplasia in the epithelium. The granules stained positively for both Fontana-Masson and Prussian blue stains. Imatinib-induced pigmentation is similar to that caused by other medications such as minocycline and anti-malarial medications, namely the deposition of a drug metabolite containing melanin and iron.

RESUMO

The perineurioma is an infrequently encountered benign peripheral nerve sheath tumor composed of a clonal proliferation of perineurial cells. Rare cases of perineurioma have been reported in the oral cavity. An extraneural sclerosing perineurioma arising in the buccal mucosa of a 17-year-old male is presented. Histopathologically, the tumor is composed of a well circumscribed nodular proliferation of spindle cells arranged in a storiform growth pattern, in some areas subtly arranged around vascular channels. The tumor cells reveal positive immunostaining for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), collagen type IV and vimentin, and negative immunostaining for S-100 protein, consistent with a perineurial origin. To the best of our knowledge, this case represents the first report of an extraneural sclerosing perineurioma involving the oral cavity.
